Set up email account in Thunderbird

Required data

After you have created an e-mail address in the CodeOrange Control Panel , you can then use this information to set up your Thunderbird to receive e-mail.

Required data:

Before you follow the steps, it is important that you have the following information at hand (which will be shown after you have created your address);

1. E-mail address;
2. E-mail user name;
3. E-mail password;
4. Incoming mail server;
5. Imap or Pop3;
6. Server for outgoing e-mail
7. Gate

Set up e-mail account step by step

Step 1: Choose "Tools" and then "Account Settings";

Step 2 : Next choose "Add Mail Account" and then "Ok".

Step 3 : You will end up in the screen below. Where you can specify the following settings;

1. Your Name : Enter the name for your new email account here;

2. Email address : Enter the correct e-mail address here;

3. Password : Enter the corresponding password here.

If you have filled in the above you can choose " Continue ".

Step 4 : In the screen below extra possibilities are available for Imap and Pop .

• Do you want to use Pop? Then choose " Pop ";
• Do you want to use Imap? Then choose " Imap " (standard, recommended)

The example below is based on " imap " (recommended).

Step 5 : At the last step you can enter additional settings;

Incoming : Imap

Server hostname (for incoming and outgoing): orange@orangedemo7423.com (note: this can also be another server name that ends with orange@orangedemo7423.com, see overview settings after creating or changing address in the Control Panel)

Port : 143 for incoming and 587 for outgoing.

SSL : StartTLS

Authentication: Normal Password

When outgoing, enter " yourname.examplemail.net " ( note the point instead of the @ )

Then choose " Done ".

Your new email account has now been successfully created. You can now send and receive mail.

 Thunderbird is in no way connected to CodeOrange, therefore CodeOrange does not support the use of Thunderbird outside of this manual
